I'm thinking of pursuing my higher studies in the UK or the US....Which colleges/Uni's would be the best choice for a Master's in Automotive Engg. or Motorsport Tech ? As is obvious,i'm interested in motorsports,but i suppose a degree in Automotive Engg./Automobile Tech. would be broader and offer more job prospects than the motorsport variant....
So which course do i take up after my Bachelor's ? As i understand it,there are two possible paths one can go down--Do a MechE course at a reputed Uni and gain as much experience as possible with a race outfit(working for free even!),or do a specialized course in Motorsport or racecar design and leave the rest to fate!

Help needed!What do i do next??!

Hi - When I was studying in England my exbf was studying Automotive Engineering at what I had heard was the best and most recognized university in the UK for Automotive Engineering/Motorsport which is Oxford Brookes University. He graduated last year with both his Bachelors and Masters, and since then the school is actually expanding it's Automotive Engineering Dept and adding a whole new wing to the school. They have their own racing team/car which as a student you work to put together and in the end of the year (last year usually) you will see it race against other schools usually in Canada I believe. www.brookes.ac.uk Hope that helps.

Leeds uni should be fine

There are two very good universities that are worth consideration:

Loughborough University
MSc in Automotive Systems Engineering

Cranfield University
MSc in Automotive Product Engineering
MSc Motorsport Engineering and Management

Can anyone tell me about the career paths in motorsports and what kind of opportunities are there presently and in the future, higher up the career ladder?
